frankly, because sometimes even though we know what compromises have tbe made in order to achieve these, is hard to admit that those compromises need to be made. as a politician like it's a desire for political leaders to get too far ahead of your constituencies. lou: meanwhile, the 89 year-old president of israel today may a shocking in mission about what president obama means when he says all options are on the table in dealing with this country. the president, accding to press is prepared to strike. also tonight, the whiteouse assault on the second amendment continues, even as democratic support is slipping away. congress today voting to avoid a government shut down. congressman marlon strops men of inana joins us here to talk about the budget and the second

oplef israel over the head of benjamin netanyahu. >> well, a lot of these visits are public diplomacy. i will say that based upon what the president haaaid over the past few days there is a hopeful be in this cynical me. i hope that the president has been seen as of late both the nsa intelligence rorts as follows until it -- israeli intelligence reports and has come to the conclusion that they are a serious threat. if you read between the lines the sounds as if he is given the green light to attack whenever they deem necessary. that is the hopeful. the cynical, says something else based upon the past four years of the attitude that the president has taken toward israel and mr. netanyahu in particular, he is killing mr. netanyahu with kindness, winning the hearts and minds of the israelis, the israeli people and will make a push very hard for peace thatrobably won't be a very good deal for the israelis. it is troubling because i just

don't know what caused the change of heart. the cynical me is probably the more -- the feeling that is stronger in this will in the pad for israel. lo do you agree? >> well, i am in washington. i only need the cynical. the other is largely in this use for the president. in no way, cynically speaking, this was the last campaign stop of the 2012 campaign in a lot of ys. this was a make-good, a promise to jewish-american voters who had some deep, deep reservations based upon what we -- what you guys were just talking about about the president's commitment to the state ofsrael and is very bad relationship with prime minister nothing of. the chairwoman of the dnc was on this trip. it was no accident. as it relates to the iranian

issue, it is funny if we look at the ticktock can see back in time, the president started out when he was running for office saying we will have direct engagement in diplomacy. now the president has gone falls -- full circle and made it back to taking the same position as george w. bush. funny thi. lou: the progress toward a more constrained iran has ended in this issue in turninghe other direction. ayollah saying today that they will annihilate the jewish cities. if it comes under attack. >> a country security it can be measured in miles and minutes. while they have a wonderful

defense and missile defense system, they have quite a few major missiles. not the ones from southern lebanon, but big warheads, conventional warheads. and only i you need to get through to land to cause tremendous casualties. when people p privately or publicly come and say why aren't they acting. the leader of the country of israel has stepped talk about the repercussions, and that includes large civilian casualties. one should only strike as a measure of last resort and not because other extnal-internal forces are asking him to. lou: and the more bellicose iran becomes, the algorithm for a pre-emptive strike, the nuclear plants ourself evidence.

the algorithms are pre-emptive strikes as they become more bellicose and threatening. what is him if you will, the sum of little? we will there be coming in your judgment in a pre-emptive strike by iael and, perhaps, a united states. >> well, it's nothing new in world history, especially recent world history. i like to give the example of the movie, the bridge on the river of pride. you don't blow up the bridge because it is easy to rebuild. but you blow up the bridge when that last point is being laid right before the train is heading over. it requires an enormous amount of good intelligence. but israel and america are waiting for is really to see if there are other forces, t regime change our policy that can take effect and watching. when that last plank is laid i think you will see a strike if nothing else changes. lou: in the want to turn quickly

. russian strategic nuclear bomb carrying out of fort of high-profile training flights, almost incurrent with the purposes of the united states flying its b52 is over north korea. what do you make of what is transpiring? >> well, is going to get dicey.3 if i can say that it makes a great point about why they won a nuclear warhead to a nuclear power because they crackpot government manages to stay in power and give aid in visits jjust by virtue of having in newark. irrational impulse for an irrational state. lou:hank you both. appreciate it very much. >> you bet. lou: much more on the president's middle east tour throughout thisroadcast. stay with us. we're coming rig back. obamacare turns. the shocking numbers ahead.

anti-gun laws. those laws barely a one day old. the nra issued a statement supporting the carter lawsuit and is considering joining in a legal challenge. a house representatives said they avoided the governmt shut down by approving a $984 billion spending bill to fund the government through september. my next guest voted against the bill. joining us is congressman martin sussman of indiana, member of the house financial services committee, chairman of the second amendment initiative. good to have you with us. let's start with why you voted against the continuing resolution. >> great to be with you. you know, as the house and senate have been working through the continuing resolution, there seems to be a lot of work to avoid a government shut down, and that think that is worthwle in making sure that we find those places where we do agree. you know, it goes over to the senate after the house has

passed its lt week. the senate just cannot help themselves from pausing of programs, you know, including a seven project. things like that the continue to be a habitual problem in the senate. to me, you kw, the american people are expecting us to budget responsibly and to spend taxpayer dollars wisely and we are seeing the consequences of this irresponsibility with $17 trillion of debt. lou: the house passed the bill on the less command of the president will assuredly sign it . your judgment now on that spending bill, you vote ainst it. it is going to go into law. it will fund the government for the remainder of the year. now we need a budget for next year and hopefully one that is looking brightly and intelligently down the path of the future. what are the prospects, the red line for your support for a new

budget bill for the new fiscal year? >> ifou remember, we passed no budget no pay, something that i strongly supported. the senate passed. basically very simply it says if congress does not pass a budget members of congress did not get there paychecks which seems to have forced the budget into passing a budget. we worked on hours over the past month. we passed it today. and with republican support. now the senate has the challenge of passing a budget that raises spending, it increases taxeso the tune of about a trillion dollars. with the republican budget, looking down the road and tried to give back to that balanced budget. lou: $5 trillion.

the ryan budget would cut 5 trillion from the level of increased spending. government would grow. more than 3 percent per year. you do support the ryan budget. >> i do. and it is really about making sure that we protect medicare for t long term, for those who are over the age of 55, protecting social security. but we also have to take a step ba and realize that these programs are not going to be able to operate the same years down the road. so free and the generations like myself, if we want those programs to be solvent we're going to have to make some adjustments which is what the budget does. it is just simply using common sense and looking at the map that we cannot continue down the current path that we're on. lou: commonense does not apply when we talk about the second amendment in this country in washington d.c. you have to be ratified that the

assault weapons element will not be in their harry reid package will go before the senate. as a major victory. you have this sense that you will be able to forestall any infringement on the second amendment by this admistration on the democratic party? >> i don't tnk the president barack obama will give up. he talked about that when he visited with us. house republicans last week at the capitol when it came down. in that think that senator reid and senator feinstein are finally realizing and just facing reality that the assault weapons ban that was passed in the 90's did not work. there were still a high percentage of gun crimes. i completely understand why we're having this dialogue because we are all grieving over the shooting in sandy hook, conn. of course, the other shootings around the country. lou: we are not treating as much

profoundly as i would have expected haul. we have not heard any discussio about mental health legislation that would go to the issue of gun possession and ownership. we're not grievg nearly as much as i would have expected has seriously and replete breathing are we. >> that is what we're trying to do ny went to the republican study commission serine -- chair and said we need to have a gun initiative, a second amendment initiative. we talked about the other side of the gun issue. the president, vice president, senate, they're only talking about the control what i want to look at the people behind the guns andhite we see these

people. they have a certain profile. they have problems that they need help with. lou: i wish we had more time. we are out of time. we thank you for being here and wish you good luck. you're talalking with the other side of the issue. to be there is the second amendment that needs to be preserved. and we applaud your efforts and that of others to make sure that the second amendment is upheld and not infringe upon. congressman, thank you for being with us. >> good to be with you. lou: good to have you here. up next in the third anniversary of obamacare is here. why isn't a particularly happy anniversary for a lot of americans. certainly not the anniversary we are told we would have by our commander-in-chief. that is in the "chalk talk" tonight. the man at the center of the chinese exeunt -- espionage plot appears in court today and says he is not guilty. we take the case.

lou: this saturday it geets pretty exciting. it marks the third anniversary of obamacare being signed into law. how about that? well, unfortunately, t is not a happy anniversary for most americans. a new fox news poll shows that 55% -- 55% wold like it to be repealed. i mean, that is extraordinary, i think. when voting on something repealed that has been around for three years, 20% of those surveyed want to expand our and another for someone to eave it as it is. many voted in an unbelievable 33 times to repeal a ban appeal

obamacare. on election night they lost that. in 2010, get ready for this. the obama administration has been so straightfoard and honest. nancy pelosi, harry reid, they have been honest people of public service. the cost of obamacare is now, that was just the early estimate. it had moved up to $1.1 billion. did i say billion?

trillion dollars. $1.2 trillion. >> look at this, quite interesting adjustments. $1.1 trillion. than $1.2 trillion. well, the current estimate is $1.3 billion. the pattern will continue. twenty-one new taxes. twenty-one new taxes that will amount to $675 billion. this is getting expensive. among the most controversial,

2.6% tax. another $43,000. house republicans voted last summer to repeal this that they had installed it in th senate. senator orrihatch renew the effort today. he introduced a bipartisan amendment with nine democratic cosponsors to roll back that medical vice attacks. so what about presidentspromised to cut health care insurance premiums? $2500 per family. one study commission that obamacare will increase the cost of a family plan by $7200. do any of you remember the original statement by the president and his team? this is a plus.

but it would cut it by $2500. in government terms, it is a $10,000 swin. so how do the officials feel about those rising premiums? well, here you are. >> why have the rates risen,and will be they rise furer? >> i think that what we are seeing is pretty good news. i used to watch this day in and day out. we have seen far feral or increases in the last few years than in the previous decade. >> i donot even believe she said that. do you? double-digit increases. they are not as big and yet

lying to federal agents. he appeared in a virginia court house allegedly failing to disclose that he was carrying a laptop and two hard drives. his attorney said his client will plead not guilty after today's proceedings continue until next week. he will then ask r a jury trial. meanwhile, nasa had locked its ffcilities to foreign nationals. ordering a review of the facilities. imagine that. well, jurors got heir turn to grill a key defendant i the case of jodi arias. doctor richard samuels says that jodi arias suffers postherpetic stress disorder and she may not remember stabbing her boyfriend. he said he was speaking in

probable terms. we have two legalexperts with us tonight. let's find out what probable terms mean. let's start with jodi arias. they are back at it again in the jury. >> they are asking some great questis. now many states allow them to ask questions, but arizona is one of them. they are now turning on us. i almost feel sad for him. they are grilling him. and he is getting defensive. it is one thing when you're being grilled by a prosecutor. basically, he has been doing this for 30 years. if anyone knows how to have a handle on this, it should be him. >>ere is the issue. this prosecutor has done a good job raising a lot of important questions. i don't deny that there re questions about this guy's

evaluation or the credibility of jodi arias. but he has not eliminated this defense is a possibility. as long as it remains as a possibility, there will be reasonable doubt. the jury doesn't know it, but there is a good chance they could come bak with a lesser offense of manslaughter as a result. >> i totally disagree. a big misstep, he is basing it on faulty information. >> the bottom line is this. there is no proof of tha there is no evidence to contradict he. or guy saying i didn't do this. why is the dna there or an eyewitness. that is the bottom line. there is no one else to say why. >> the bottom line is this,

there may be valid questions. i don't disagree with that. but this jury is going to have to say that they would bet their life that thiss not a possibility. if they don't, they have no business leading her life, and that is the bottom line. lou: we have a complete disagreement. i have to ask you both, shouldn't that be a mercy rule? he is so discredited, that there should be any mercy rule. >> let's turn to nassau where they are not having much fun because of this program under the obama adnistration to bring in foreign nationals, particularly chinese nationals and pay them under this program to effectively spy. they have been in blocked out.

we are told this is a bizarre case. he is now accused of lying to federal agents, not sabotage her spine,. >> he has been investigated under the arms control export act. right now, the only charge that they have because this investigation, there are 281 foreign nationals that have access to facilities. right now there is a moratorium on that. this isn't the first time. he has sensitive matrial. >> real question is who is this guy? is he an intelligence officer from another country?

who did he speak with? the duty of access to? do a million things that need to be investigated. says that they know very little about this guy. >> well, maybe he is just a compulsive, you know, fan of laptops. particularly data storage devices that contain sensitive information. lou: i am starting to think that you are a defense attorney. just joking. brian, we appreciate it. >> thank you for having us. lou: you can join the discusson by going to loudobbs.com. you can e-mail me and tweak us at lou dobbs news. up next, authorities considering taking bank deposits and citizens. wall street tells us why inveors should be concerned. it was a down day on wall street. we thank you orville and wilbur... ...amelia... neil and buzz: for teaching us that you can't create the future... by clinging to the past.
